Trafoda Robert H. Hiscock yr enw yn ei lyfr A History of Gravesend (Phillimore, 1976):

"The name Gravesham appears only in the Domesday Book, 1086, and was probably the error of a Norman scribe. It was 'Gravesend' in the Domesday Monarchorum c.1100, and 'Gravesende' in the Textus Roffensis c.1100. It is strange that this "clerical error" should now have been adopted as the name of the new Council".
